Recorded 5/10/2008 at the Hard Rock Hotel. The video is shaky because the main floor was standing room only and we were all crammed in towards the front. This was shot with a Canon PowerShot SX100IS, but the audio is from another source because my original audio sounded like crap. :(
I was absolutely delighted when I saw DD perform this live in Birmingham. I have always loved this song more than any other on the Rio album (unusual, perhaps) and this arrangement just kicks arse. I could listen to this aaaaall day! <3 Simon!!

I must say, I really really miss the guitar riffs and bass licks and full drumset...
-sigh-
AAAH I LOVE YOU SIMON AND YOU TOO EVERYONE ELSE!
Okay, I (don't!) feel better, now,
<3.

Dude you did a great job. I was just listening to the original in my car, and came on here hoping to catch a video, and you totally surprised me with this. Thanks. There are other clips of the same concert, and yours is the best quality. This is a great remix they did which I've never heard. The original has to be one of my favorite songs of theirs.

Best track off "Rio". It's just a shame they've never played it live in a more conventional way, as good as this version is.

Where did you get the audio from? The part where you hear someone say, "Play that fu*king bass, John!" and some other conversation sounds like me at the 28 may concert at Agganis Arena in Boston, MA! :)
